    ...hate the game!

    Relax, Brightstar. I am a little bitter myself, as I said in my previous post, but things are not as bad as all that! For the most part, at least, no-one is trying to punish anyone. It's nice to vent a little and kvetch about not getting enough, but let's not get too carried away. A lot of women act like jerks, a lot of men act like jerks; I'm sure it's frustrating for some women to watch men go after hot but insipid women just as it is frustrating for some men to watch some women date assholes.

    It's fun to over-generalize sometimes, and it's nice to be able to point to something other than your own social ineptitude or unattractiveness as an excuse for being rejected by the opposite sex (I know I enjoy it!). But each individual woman is not a representative of some evil feminist conspiricy to make men suffer. So just chill, my friend.
